Soldier of Fortune Magazine Ventures Into FICINT With Alternate History of Bay of Pigs Invasion
A former U.S. intelligence officer imagines a small slice of history, when anti-Castro forces prevailed in Cuba.
TAMPA, FLORIDA, US, July 11, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Soldier of Fortune Magazine announces its groundbreaking foray into the realm of Fictional Intelligence (FICINT) with the publication of its inaugural piece in this innovative genre. In this case, the magazine explores backwards in time.
"We’ve been paying attention to the emerging field of FICINT as a serious analytic tool," publisher Susan Katz Keating said. "Most FICINT scenarios are set in the future. But what if FICINT also could show alternate history, and underscore what has been at stake in conflict?"
Keating asked Joshua Garay, a former U.S. intelligence officer, to imagine a small slice of history, with the world stage being reset when anti-Castro forces invaded the Bay of Pigs in Cuba.
"He came up with a gripping narrative of when the Brigade 2506 invaded the Bay of Pigs - and prevailed," Keating said. "In this scenario, the brigade defeats Castro, and Cuba becomes a thriving, independent country."
The realm of FICINT represents a bold frontier in storytelling and analysis, blending the creative ingenuity of speculative fiction with the rigorous insight of intelligence analysis. This emerging genre allows Soldier of Fortune to explore complex geopolitical scenarios, emerging technologies, and global security challenges through the lens of imaginative narratives.
The debut piece in Soldier of Fortune's FICINT series offers readers a gripping narrative that not only entertains but also challenges conventional thinking about modern warfare, technological advancements, and strategic foresight.
"We believe that FICINT will not only captivate our loyal readers but also attract new audiences interested in exploring the intersection of fiction and intelligence," Keating said.
Soldier of Fortune Magazine invites readers, writers, and analysts alike to embark on this exciting journey into the realm of FICINT. The magazine looks forward to continuing to push boundaries and deliver cutting-edge insights through innovative storytelling.
Soldier of Fortune Magazine is the legacy, leading source for military and adventure storytelling. With a global readership spanning military personnel, veterans, law enforcement, and outdoor enthusiasts, Soldier of Fortune provides unparalleled coverage of conflict the world over.
